They're calling it a "strategic planetary defence simulator," which is probably the most efficient way to describe this crazy mixture of genres. They're a completely self-funded studio (and proud of it), comprised of several X-COM loving Crysis modders from around the world, and they've been secretly working on Xenonauts for nine months. For those fans angry that the official reboot of the IP is switching genres and focusing on narrative, Goldhawk's here to catch you on the rebound. They hadn't intended to announce their game until they had trailers ready, but they've decided that the backlash to the " XCOM" announcement is a great opportunity to get their name out there.
XENONAUTS BASE VICTORY FULL
It's a love letter to the original X-COM: UFO Defense (aka UFO: Enemy Unknown), and will be using the classic strategy game as a template on which they can build a much larger experience, but the developers promise it will still be full of surprises. Now a new London-based indie studio, Goldhawk Interactive, has revealed their first title: Xenonauts. This has elicited some diverse reactions, but they're mainly in the three categories of "Yay they're bringing back X-COM," "No they're ruining X-COM," and "Hey guys what's X-COM?" A few days ago 2K Games announced that 2K Marin, the makers of BioShock 2, will be rebooting the franchise as an FPS. It's just mind-boggling! In fact, it got me so riled up that I'm considering writing an extremely heated critique about their selfishness as soon as I have time to spare.By VGChartz Staff, posted on 17 April 2010 / 3,113 ViewsĢ010 is quickly becoming the year of unexpected X-COM announcements, which is a nice improvement for a franchise that hasn't seen any action for nine years. Hence the results showed just how selfish the gaming community is since almost every Windows user put all the other features as more important than allowing more people to play. Thus if the porting didn't make it into the final stretch (which it barely did, mind you) they could always say something like "there's not enough interest" - we'll obviously Windows folks aren't interested cause, you know, they are a majority and obviously don't give a damn about other OS. It shows absolutely no interest other than earning money and leaves the fate of the few in the hand of the uncaring many. I consider it unprofessional and very biased.įirstly I'm crossed with the developers who mixed porting a game to other OS, an important decision, with obviously mandatory features like tile-sets and the likes. However I was extremely unhappy with this "poll of priorities" of theirs. It's nice that we'll be getting the game.

We’ll also be putting female soldiers into the game, and providing a Mac and Linux version of the game too.Īnd i think that particular line was located in update 4 A victory for the silent majority?Īctually, it’s a victory for everyone. Ironically, the two features that had the most vocal supporters did not do very well - the female soldiers came 6th and Mac / Linux porting came dead last. I suppose this shows the value of asking people what they want – more maps and tilesets, apparently! As mentioned in the previous Update, we were already planning to put more maps and tilesets in the game, but we probably underestimated quite how important they are to people.
